Refusing Care

Keep a daily routine.

Don't ask "Do you want to... bathe, brush your teeth or get dressed?" unless "no" is an OK answer for you. Tell her it is time for the care activity.

Have all supplies ready before you start an activity.

Explain to her, in simple terms, what you will be doing.

Make sure her refusal is not because she is afraid or does not understand what you are asking her to do.

If she beings to fight you, step away. Try again later.
